HISTORY CLUB OF CAL POLY HUMBOLDT


The History Club is a student-run organization composed of students who are history
majors/minors or students who are just interested in history. Because it is a student-
run club, what the club does varies by semester and by the activity level of the
students in it. The club meets bi-weekly on Fridays to discuss club business and plan
activities.
Most club members find that it provides them with a small community of fellow
students who have similar interests, similar classes, and extensive knowledge to
share on professors and course content. Students often find it an excellent way to
network and make new friends. Among the activities that the club has engaged in the
past are the following:

 Trips to AHA Conferences — The AHA (or American Historical Association) is


among the most prominent historical associations in the country. The annual
conference provides students with an opportunity to see history in action and
network with other historians and students of history. These are significant
events and are generally expensive. They require a lot of planning and
commitment on the part of the students though they can be very rewarding
experiences. In the past, students have traveled with Dr. Anne Paulet to the
AHA Conference and have been able to learn from nationally renowned
historians and explore cities such as New Orleans, New York, and Chicago.
Future meeting places include Philadelphia (2023), San Francisco (2024),
and New York (2025).
 Local Trips — Students have engaged in a variety of local trips, often with
historical backgrounds. In the past, students have visited Fort Humboldt, the
Humboldt Historical Society, and the Clarke Museum. Trips to Special
Collections, Historic Chinatown in Eureka, and Fort Ross, among other
places, have also been discussed.
 Workshops — The History Club works extensively with the Writing Workshop,
ACAC, the Library, and other groups on campus to provide workshops on
writing research papers, researching historical topics, resumes and
interviews, and other ideas that students have for the club.

2.sports club
Sports clubs have increasingly been acknowledged
as important settings for health promotion [1]. The
term sport club is synonymous with organized sport
and both are considered to consist of environments
that support the healthy behaviours of its athletic
members [2]. For example, sport club members
have a good nutritional intake [3] and more meet
physical activity recommendations than their non-
members peers [4]. In addition to improved
physical health, other non-sport specific
psychosocial objectives, such as promoting social
development, belonging and friendship, can be met
through participation in sport clubs [5].

8.cooking club
If I had the opportunity to create a high school extracurricular, I would create a cooking
club. Although some schools may have them, it is still a relatively unorthodox activity in
most schools due to its logistics and costs. This is a shame because cooking is an
invaluable skill applicable to our daily lives. We as humans need to eat to survive, and if
we don’t know how to cook or choose ingredients for our meals, we are at a
disadvantage because we must depend on paying for someone else to cook for us (i.e.
fast food, restaurants, processed food). Of course, it is pretty unreasonable to not
depend on others once in a while for our meals. It is still helpful, however, to know what
you are putting in your body and to have the ability to support yourself when it comes to
food for the rest of your life.
A cooking club has many benefits. Of course, for one, it would provide an opportunity to
learn cooking skills like the different cutting, baking, or preserving techniques. Not
knowing these skills is one factor why many people aren’t able to cook or eat home
cooked meals. I’m fortunate enough to be able to learn some recipes from my parents,
but without them I would likely not have learned how to cook at all even after finishing
high school. A cooking club would provide many students a resource outside of their
families to learn these skills.
Another benefit is the collaboration between those in the club. The club would emphasize
the teamwork that needs to go into the finished product, because cooking in most
kitchens usually does involve cooking with multiple people, whether that is in a
professional setting or cooking with family or roommates. There is not only that aspect
but collaboration in a cooking club means people could learn from each other how to
cook different meals. I would love this kind of extracurricular that embraces cultural
diversity. There are cuisines from around the world that no one person knows how to
cook on their own; luckily, they can be shared.
Lastly, a cooking club would promote a love of food for those that participate. Like I said,
we eat to survive, but we can really enjoy this task of feeding ourselves when we learn to
cook. I would want this extracurricular to reach as many people as possible for this
reason alone. There is a reason why we get excited when we eat our favorite foods, or
prepare a special meal for someone else. We all have our own tastes, and an
extracurricular that helped us cultivate those could truly transform the way many of us
experience food.

On the basis of the literature, youth sports clubs


can be seen to have both obligations and
prospecting factors to acknowledge and act on
health promotion [6,15]. Obligations are more
moral and ethical by nature, because the most of
the clubs in Nordic countries are based on
voluntary civil activity, which can only be guided,
not obligated per se.
The first obligation relates to the fact that the state
financially subsidizes national sport associations
and municipalities similarly subsidize local clubs.
From this perspective, sports associations and clubs
have a semi-official status [16], and public
administration can expect reciprocity, that is, clubs
to pay attention to publicly important issues like
the promotion of health. Moreover, voluntary
organizations have been seen particularly potential
contexts to enhance interactions between the state
and individuals, that is, to mutually mediate
information, values etc. [17].
The fundamentals of the voluntary activities and
the historical development of sports clubs form the
second obligation. Voluntary activity should
contribute to the needs of its participants [18]. In
sports club activities, this does not always happen,
as the competitive objectives overpower other aims
[19]. The historical perspective addresses the
values and fundamentals the club activities initially
possessed. Many of the Finnish sports clubs were
founded for some other reason than purely sports,
that is, under labour associations and temperance
societies. Sport was used as a vehicle through
which other ideological values, especially
temperance, were pursued. A non-drinking, honest
and vigorous person has been, and continues to be,
the paragon of a sportsman, especially in junior
sport. The historical development of civil activity
in other Nordic countries shapes similarly the
national fundamentals behind the club activities
[13].
The third obligation concerns the sports clubs’ and
officials’ argument that health education and/or
promotion is the responsibility of homes and
parents, not clubs [15]. This raises a fundamental
question of whether club actors can operate with
children and adolescents without any responsibility
beyond sport. Due to the authoritative role of all
the adults, but coaches in particular, it is evident
that they cannot. Also, the clubs are integral, not
external, part of surrounding societies [16].
Therefore, problems in public health concern every
actor in the society, which under health promotion
mean shared responsibility, instead of government
taking care of the problems alone [16].
5.Fashion online
Fashion is a non-verbal way of communication that
conveys a lot about the person’s personality,
background and style. Earlier it was exclusively the
world of the affluent, celebrities and royalty.
However, fashion is now within the reach of the
common man, especially the youth. Besides, dress
fashion is an evolution of ideas, which begins as a
fad, but in course of time gets accepted in society
as a style, which could be in attire, behaviour or
lifestyle. Fashion is mostly associated with
glamour. It makes people feel confident and bold.
People can express themselves openly. Today
fashion is not limited to western countries; now,
every country has come out with their fashion
sense, not only the clothing but the accent of that
country, the living style.Vedantu experts have
crafted an essay on fashion that covers its
significance and how it reflects in your personality.
This essay has promoted the thought perfectly that
fashion is also about carrying yourself in society
without having an attractive or trendy attire. It is
about being comfortable with yourself and not
being a doppelganger of another person.

Fashion is important because it reflects the culture


of a country. It makes our life colourful and
changes our life with time. In a way it also adds
variety to life, providing an opportunity in trying
out something new. Fashion is not only limited to
clothing or makeup but in a much broader sense
includes accessories like shoes, perfume, hairstyle,
mannerism, etiquette and attitude towards life.
Fashion is not restricted to self-expression only but
also a means of self-empowerment and confidence.
It encompasses the total spectrum of human
activity, which relates to a specific period. It is an
outlook of life.

I don't just prefer online shopping, I love it. The


difference for myself between in store and online is
anxiety. I seldom shop in store for this reason, I
have severe social anxiety. One wouldn't think
because I deal with 100's of people daily.
Nonetheless I do when it comes to shopping.
People are always in a hurry, I can't stand anyone
shopping next to me, or in the same isle. I also can't
stand when anyone in a store feels the need to stand
on top of you. Online shopping is convenient. I
shop at my convenience without anyone breathing
down my neck. I can shop 24/7 365 days a year and
do it in peace. I'm never in peace in store at
anytime, unless the store is empty, not too much of
a chance of that ever happening. This is how I
personally feel towards this subject.
3.travel club
What does a travel club offer?
One of my passions is travelling. Travel involves
visiting new places and meeting new people and
having varied experiences. I come originally from
Romania and have travelled to UK and US. I
remember the quote by Samuel Johnson: “All
travel has its advantages. If the passenger visits
better countries, he may learn to improve his own.
And if fortune carries him to worse, he may learn
to enjoy it”. I have had the luck of visiting better
countries and I believe my travel experiences have
taught me a lot about human life and helped me
expand the way I see things.

A typical club will offer an annual membership and


may also charge an “initiation” fee. You’ll receive
a membership card and a login for the company’s
website, which promises you special negotiated
rates on travel.
Benefits may include:

A 50 percent or more discount on travel.


Buy one/get one free airfare, or a companion
certificate.
A “free” cruise.
A “free” two-day vacation.
A discount access card that offers a special deal on
nontravel items, such as restaurants and attractions.
Wait! My travel club is different
Terms like “travel club” and “vacation club” can
cover a variety of travel products. But don’t be
confused. For example, the Disney Vacation Club
isn’t really a “club” in the traditional sense. It’s a
timeshare program, and although it’s one of the
better ones, it’s still a timeshare program.

And to be sure, there are travel memberships worth


joining.

When I first travelled within Romania, it opened


my eyes to how other people live. I saw how
people lived happily even though they did not have
much money or luxuries. It taught me that to be
happy, money is not the only thing. I must have an
attitude to be happy with what I have. It also taught
me to accept people from different races and
colors. When I travelled abroad, I saw new cultures
and different lifestyles.

It was very exciting and adventurous. I learnt to


enjoy these new experiences, to become part of
these varied cultures by taking their food, wearing
their dresses, etc. This has created in me the
awareness that people all over the world are
basically the same but they are different in the
cultures – have different ways of talking, singing,
enjoying, dancing, writing, building, dressing and
conducting business. I have acquired a more global
perspective of the world we live in. My knowledge
has thus expanded because of my travel.

6.Language club

It supports the ability of your child to


communicate, and express and understand feelings.
It also supports your child's thinking ability and
helps them develop and maintain relationships.
Language development lays the foundation for the
reading and writing skills in children as they enter
and progress through school.

Language activities are the different ways we use


language to communicate.
Language Club is a place for language learners to
learn and use English in a casual/informal setting
outside regular class teaching. It takes care of the
students' different developmental needs such as
their skills and creativity.
The club can select a book in the target language.
Then, all club members read the book. Finally, you
host a meeting where you discuss the book while
using your target language. This way, you get
reading, speaking and listening practice.
What is the purpose of language club in school?
The activities are designed to develop vocabulary,
fluency in the language, familiarise learners with
linguistic expressions, to develop linguistic
competence, sharpen creativity and trigger logical
thinking.
English clubs give students a chance to practice
English in a relaxed, informal environment, and to
meet new people. Many English Clubs are
moderated by English teachers, but this doesn't
necessarily always have to be the case. Student
support workers or even students themselves can
often make great moderators.
10.Eating club

Princeton Eating Clubs are part of a tradition that dates back to 1879. In the early years,
the University did not provide students with dining facilities, so students created their
own clubs to provide comfortable houses for dining and social life. Eating clubs are
unique to Princeton and the most popular dining and social option for students in their
junior and senior years.

As times have changed, so have the clubs. When Princeton made the decision to accept
women in 1969, the eating clubs began to accept women as well. All of the clubs are now
co-educational and reflect the full diversity of the Princeton student body.

There are currently 11 eating clubs, each with a distinctive character. Most of them are
located on Prospect Avenue, except for Terrace Club, which is located around the corner
on Washington Road. The clubs are architecturally impressive and unique. Many have
undergone recent renovations to provide better facilities for dining, studying, relaxing,
and social life. There has been a growing emphasis on educational programs (such as
guest lectures), community service, and sustainability as well. All the clubs offer robust
wireless Internet connections to the University’s network.

The eating clubs are independent, private institutions that do not have any formal ties to
the University. They are managed by graduate boards, undergraduate officers, and
professional club managers. The clubs work together at both the graduate and
undergraduate level to support each other, and they also cooperate with the University on
issues such as shared meal plans, student safety, and cost containment.

During the 1970s some of the clubs changed from a selective admission process (called
“bicker”) to an open (or non-selective) admission process. There are currently six
selective clubs (Cannon, Cap and Gown, Cottage, Ivy, Tiger Inn, and Tower) and five open
clubs (Charter, Cloister Inn, Colonial, Quadrangle, and Terrace).

Students are eligible to join a club in the spring of sophomore year, and that is when most
students join. All of the clubs, both selective and open, organize events for sophomores to
visit the clubs to learn more and meet members. Students join as social members for the
balance of their sophomore year with some limited meals, but full membership begins in
the fall of junior year. Some of the clubs continue to take new members who are juniors
and seniors as well. Currently, 68% of upperclass students (juniors and seniors) are
members of a club.

The clubs each have approximately 150 – 200 undergraduate members and maintain
strong ties with their alumni members. Alumni frequently return to campus during the
fall for a game, or in the spring for reunions, and will often use their club as a home to
have a meal, catch up with friends, and have the opportunity to meet current
undergraduate members.

Membership in your eating club lasts for life, and many Princeton students say their
closest friendships, during and after college, were formed with their clubmates.
